Cool pic, got me wanting to take off work some this week.
Great information, appreciate the tips. I mostly fish a very small creek where a deep pool may be 5-6 ft., due mainly to convenience of being raised along the banks. My best fishing year after year is always in Jan - March. Seems like by mid April i cant buy a fish, i fairly often have follows or raise fish but they just wont eat it with the regularity they do earlier in the year. I know that seems just opposite of what i read. For me, winter months typically = less follows but more bites. Do you notice a difference in winter fish vs. this time of year in willingness to eat? Do the fish you catch stay in the creek year round or move back down stream after spawning to bigger water during the summer months? I will add, most of the fish i catch hit large spinner baits and are not in the same size class as what your catching, a 40" is a brute for me. Sorry for so many questions but i am intrigued by your success. Thanks again
